ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court has fixed the federal government’s plea seeking an extension in the Faizabad sit-in inquiry commission’s deadline for next week.
A three-member bench of the Supreme Court will hear the government’s petition next week. The federal government had earlier filed a petition for an extension in the commission report’s deadline. The petition stated that the commission could not prepare and submit the final report within the stipulated time.
In November last year, the federal government had formed a three-member commission to investigate the sit-in led by the late Khadim Hussain Rizvi of Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), aiming to identify those who had planned, financed, and supported the event that disrupted lives in Rawalpindi and Islamabad in November 2017.
